A buddy of mine sent that to me today.

Be sure to check out the infographic where they "teach" you how hold 'em is played...

Yes, I'm glad I read that. Gotta go, I'm playing on Party right now - I'm the "leader" this hand and I have to go put in my "ante"

Heh- if a real hand played out in that manner (everyone to the river, with top pair as the WORST hand), that pot would be a monster. Nice time to be holding Big Slick =)

what about the assertion that harmon may be the best player in the world?? geez, you could make a valid argument against her even being the best female player i think.

my mom saw that article and i think has new respect for my poker interest. the comparison with the bobby fisher chess boom of the early 70's especially caught her eye (was taught to play chess very young).

not exactly the best article ever....but anything that portrays poker in such a positive light to such a massive audience does nothing but contribute to the cause (the cause for me being...the more fishies, the better).
